Daisuke Takahashi

Watching now: He ate Ramen on the day of his competition! Naughty naughty!
2011-he loves his SP costume, and thinks his eyes have energy that day. Also he thinks his skin is looking good! Put a 4-3 in at the last minute without consulting anyone.

I was not expecting it but only half of the program is Lacrimosa. The first half is a mix of songs from Nico Muhly's Mothertongue album. The program looks and feels as if it's from a different world. It's almost redefining figure skating, taking it to a distant future.
 
It really is beautiful.

One question: do you think there will be a performance released with no commentary at any point? Why they have to talk after the music starts for non-competitive programmes... It is so annoying and distracting.

Maybe after the other broadcasts? I don't know for sure. Machida's "The Inheritor" program at Prince Ice World was released with no commentary and Christmas on Ice is also broadcasted by BS Japan.
 
They'll be showing the last show from today tomorrow evening on BS Japan. According to my HDD recorder, they give us a choice between commentary and no commentary :hap10: But yikes, my recorder is almost full with Nationals starting very soon!
 
Ooh, let us hope someone uploads a non-commentary version! Thank you!

Honestly, delicate, subtle music begins with the skater moving in tune with every note... and one can hardly hear the damn music because they start blathering over it. :laugh: :rolleye:
 
:love: The music suits Dai and his skating so well. :love:

Agreed. I have awlays wanted Dai to skate to Fifth Element's Diva song someday: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPf2ANjUbrY Thus watching the video clip now, I feel as if my dream's come true! Thanks a lot for posting, ioanna. :)
 
Omg, thank you, thank you, thank you!!! :love: So beautiful without the babble. And moving. And even the costume is growing on me.

Oh, I miss him. :sad21:

Me, too;;;;
As for the costume, I also want to see Dai in a white version and skate to Debussy's Prélude à "L'après-midi d'un faune" someday.
 
I understand better what Dai meant when he said he usually didn't chose the music for his competitive programs because his personal tastes were too dark and underground. He seems to be such an interesting person... Lovely exhibition.
 
:hb: A Happy New Year, everyone!!! :hb:

:hap93: In 2016, hopefully we will see Daisuke on ice more often, and get dazzled by his performances! :hap93:
